A six year old child, perhaps possessed by the Devil himself, recently chased after a peaceful family of ducks in Moranda Park with a stick, only to trip and fall on his face much to the pleasure of the heckled ducks. The child's parents, irresponsible witnesses to the entire event, simply shrugged their shoulders and continued eating sandwiches on the grass.
Port Hueneme has a large population of ducks and other waterfowl who reside both at the beach and inland green areas. Moranda Park is well known for its abundant ducks as well as a large underground community of ground squirrels. Children often heckle and taunt the ducks for reasons only a psychotherapist might explain. Today was the first sign the ducks might actually possess some hidden psychic weapon for fighting back.
Thankfully, the human child was not physically injured by the fall, recovering after a minute or two of sustained yet puzzled crying. However, the psychological damage he suffered from being heckled by ducks will certainly haunt his dreams for years to come.
